Chapter 177: Come down, heads-up!
Because of typhoid fever, Liu Zheng was arranged alone in a camp on the edge.
It's just that the rebels in the nearby camp also seem to have participated in the battle just now, and at this time they are swearing at the moth thieves, or screaming and hissing, joking and singing, making the neighborhood a little noisy.
Liu Zheng was in a daze in the camp tent for a long time, thinking back to a series of tragic things he saw before coming to the camp tent, and when it was dark, Zhang Ji brought food in, and Xun Yougong Sun Yue also came in and said some words, but he was still absent-minded, and when he really calmed down and came back to his senses, it was already late at night.
He drank the medicine, and asked Wen Ping, who was waiting outside the door, to ask Zhang Ji to come in with the bamboo slips left by Gan Shi, and then picked up the pen and began to write something.
This siege battle was the first time he had learned it.
The scene was so tragic that he was terrified, he wanted to do something when he was looking at it from a distance, and now that he thought about it, all he could do was rescue and sanitation.
He and Gan Shi were also doing this before, and they were familiar with it at this time, and by the time Zhang Ji came over, he had already expanded some of the content about the plague.
Zhang Ji came in with those bamboo slips, and naturally knew what Liu Zheng wanted to do, Liu Zheng's interest was obviously not high when he came in the afternoon, at this time he handed over the bamboo slips to Liu Zheng to watch, and said: "Zhu Zhonglang asked me about the situation in the village before, and he didn't say anything at this time, I'm afraid that it is really as Brother Gongda said, he is giving you a little time." It can be regarded as Brother Deran guessing correctly...... Well, what you and I are doing now, if we really do it well, maybe the court will also open up. ”
Liu Zheng didn't speak, so Zhang Ji also said to himself: "I waited for the other side to find out some news, Yun Chang went out to act as a scout, I'm afraid it will take some time to come back...... Brother Gongda thought that Zhu Zhonglang might want him to stay away from you. Speaking of which, Brother Gongda was also taken by General Zhu Zhonglang to act as a staff member at this time, and it was said that Xun's insight was extraordinary after all...... It seemed that Zidu was going to be brought over to train the cavalry, but he refused. Fortunately, there are still these soldiers and horses left by my grandfather, otherwise, I am afraid that it will be difficult for him to refuse, and now there is a reason to train soldiers and horses......"
"However, General Fang Cai Fu also asked me if I wanted to join the army as a doctor...... I dragged it out for a while, and let Che Huan and the four of them go first, they learned some from Brother Gan Shi, although they are not proficient, but they want to see some pathologies, and it is okay to help. I asked some people from the Qin Nursing Home to help record the pathology of the injured...... Then I'll dispense the medicine here. However, the injured over there are really not good, especially a large group of people who are making noise, one by one affecting each other, people's hearts are in turmoil, according to Qin Huyuan, there are many people who went crazy tonight, and committed suicide directly, and they also provoked more than 100 people who were resting in the nearby camp tent to roar, fortunately, they were suppressed in time, but thirty or forty people also died......
"Oh, by the way, you can take a look at these bamboo slips, it may be beneficial."
Liu Zheng pointed to the bamboo slips about psychology that he had summarized earlier, and then added content to the bamboo slips recorded by Gan Shi.
Zhang Ji nodded, and while opening the bamboo slips, he said: "My doorman of Zhang's Mansion will also practice with those nearby rebels in the past two days...... Qin Huyuan inquired, and now the momentum in the army is really a little sluggish. Zhu Zhonglang will insist on the plan to annihilate the moth thief, in fact, many people also have those doubts like the one that Brother Deran asked in the afternoon. The treasury is empty...... It's really hard to say this, if it shakes morale, it will also fuel the arrogance of the anti-thieves, and maybe it will also make some moth thieves in other places revignate. Alas, I don't know what Zhu Zhonglang will decide, he won't kill them all, right? What a life! ”
"Let's see who has been dead for a long time......"
Liu Zheng's hand holding the pen paused, remembering the matter of asking Zhang Mancheng to open the city gate to drive people out, he stared at his eyebrows, but he didn't say much, and he was also worried in his heart, he was afraid that if he opened the city gate and let his fate go, there would not be many people in Wancheng who agreed, and there would be more people who wanted to seek Zhao'an, and I don't know how Zhang Mancheng would decide......
When the night was a little deeper, Liu Zheng went out to solve the physiological problem, and from time to time there was a singing sound in the camp, which was a little sad, and it was suppressed from time to time, and then there was a sonorous and decisive singing.
There are a lot of firelights in the far and near, and there is a large area of smoke burning in the direction of Wancheng, and the sky is filled with a strange smell, and I don't know what it is, and then in the middle of the night, there will be a loud scolding sound inside and outside the camp, and then there will be howling and crying outside the camp, and the crying and scolding will also come out from the Wancheng side, and the two sides will continue.
Gongsun Yue seemed to have just come back from a small release, pulled his belt over, and then looked in the direction of Wancheng and covered his mouth and nose, "Wancheng is burning the corpses of the imperial army over there, and General Zhu Zhonglang also ordered to kill some of the captured moth thieves and fight back...... Moreover, the more I heard that when the war is over, Zhu Zhonglang will build a capital view ......"
"Tsukiyo View ......"
Liu Zheng breathed a little shorter, smelled the smell in the air and then covered his mouth and nose with his sleeve, but he was also a little nauseous.
Gongsun Yue didn't know what he was thinking, he was silent for a long time, looked around, and whispered: "Brother Deran, today is the first time in Yue's life...... Well, I was a little scared the first time. To tell you the truth, I always felt like I was very good in the past, but tonight I dozens of bubbles of urine like an old man...... To be honest, after meeting General Zhu Zhonglang, although he looked very kind, he couldn't even see that he was in a bad mood even if there were no results in today's battle. But Yue was even more worried. ”
"Such a person is the more scared. They usually hide knives in their laughter, and you may not even know that they have sold you...... Yue's mind is now full of jumbled thoughts...... I was always worried that I would die on the city wall, or I would be pushed out and beheaded, adding some insignificant merit to the Jingguan......"
He smiled bitterly and said, "Since General Fu will come out to greet you today, and he has said so many things to you, the more I can guess that he is definitely not my idea...... This has to be solved...... I heard Zhongye say that Zhu Zhonglang will suspect that you are preparing to escape, and he inquired, the rebel army here is different from the rebel army I have heard of in the past, it is said that they are all elites from Huaishui and Surabaya, comparable to the soldiers of the fifth battalion of the Northern Army. These people are all subordinates of Sima of the Zuo Army...... And Nazuojun Sima is now going out with Brother Yun...... Maybe we're all under surveillance...... Brother Deran, my life is in your hands. Exceed...... I don't want to feel like I'm going to be wrong with you, and I don't want people to think I'm looking at the wrong person, really, so you're ...... You have to work hard. ”
Liu Zheng nodded, smiled and comforted: "Don't worry, I'm still thinking that he will let you call me lord one day." Pulling people from Brother Boju's place, or his cousin, it's interesting to think about. I still want to see you hesitant when the time comes. ”
"Impossible!"
Gongsun Yue shook his head resolutely, then hesitated for a moment, and sighed, "If you are like this...... The more will not stay. ”
"People change, and so does the world. Take your time. ”
Liu Zheng looked at the night sky, this sky galaxy is gorgeous, and it really doesn't match this military camp.
"Stargazing at night? This matter is by no means taught by General Lu Zhonglang. My eldest brother won't. Brother Deran seems to know a lot, and ...... that horse."
Gongsun Yue looked at Qingyun who was tied to the tent.
"When you serve me as Lord, I will tell you all."
"Heh, Brother Deran is joking. Impossible......"
Gongsun Yue shook his head again, as if he couldn't stand Liu Zheng's attitude, and walked back.
"Everything...... It's all possible. ”
Liu Zheng smiled inexplicably, and then went in.
Late at night, Zhang Ji couldn't help but go to sleep, Liu Zheng said goodbye, and then continued to ponder about the pacification work of people's hearts, although Fu Xie's words were telling himself that there are people outside the mountains and mountains, but Liu Zheng always felt that he also belonged to the outside people, the mountains outside...... I'm afraid that anyone who has crossed over will occasionally feel like this.
Well, in a few days, you have to ask the real names of those generals, so that you can know yourself and your opponent......
……
As soon as the middle yuan passed, the summer heat in the 24 solar terms also arrived, and the heat dissipated, and there began to be some autumn coolness.
It's just that there is coolness, but Zhang Mancheng seems to be still in the summer these days, and there is nowhere to vent the boredom and heat in his heart.
Since he came back in the early morning of the day of the fight, Zhao Hong responded, and then directly led his troops to kill the imperial army camp, and in the next few days, he no longer had the same handy command of his subordinates as before.
Although it is understandable that Han Zhong, Lao Qi, and Sun Xia died and their prestige was greatly reduced, Zhao Hong and himself were brothers who were born and died after all, but they did not expect that after preparing to disband the Wancheng army by his side, the other party's reaction would be so fierce.
Although Zhao Hong went out that day in Zhongyuan and said that it was for Han Zhong and them to avenge their hatred, Zhang Mancheng could still feel the other party's dissatisfaction with him, and then he led his subordinates to save Zhao Hong, and the other party was also grateful to admit his mistake, but in the past few days, he still felt that behind Zhao Hong's injury and recuperation, there were some reasons that made him frightened.
Of course, he didn't tell anyone about all this, that is, Shi Yiguan didn't leave an inch, and he didn't say a word in his heart, but Shi Yiguan occasionally stared at him with a dull expression, as if he was more preoccupied than him, which also made him see that there may be some former friends around him, but now his subordinates have deviated from morality.
Fortunately, after seven or eight days of hard work, the court fought a few times, and many generals here were still able to deal with it well.
Of course, this is also a matter of course.
After all, he had been fighting against the imperial army for several months, and he and Han Zhong and others had deliberately guided them at the beginning, and these people were doing their job step by step, and it was not difficult to deal with the uniform attack of the imperial army, but ...... There are also signs that he has begun to fall out of favor.
In a few battles, although there were still people gathered around to listen to his arrangements, there were still many familiar faces, but they no longer appeared.
On one occasion, he tried to stay at home, and then learned that the generals' men were coming and going in Zhao Hong's house, and even those who were close to him could also surround him and join forces to defend the city.
And when he went out of the city to attack the imperial army several times, he didn't receive any news before, even when he received it, it was those people who were trapped outside the city and asked him to lead troops out of the city to rescue.
Occasionally, he hugged his pregnant mother-in-law and thought about it, but he thought that it would be better to go on like this, either die with these brothers, or survive this period of time to be recruited, just watching his mother-in-law's belly bulge day by day - although it has not changed much, he can still feel the subtle differences, thinking about the situation that the child may encounter in the future, he is becoming more and more anxious in his heart.
Fortunately, some of the things that said Xiang were still going on in secret, even if many people voted for other people's camp because of this, and brought some gossip in the city, but the group of people left by Han Zhong, Lao Qi, Sun Xia, and Sun Zhong were still obedient, and most of his henchmen and Lao Ji's henchmen were still loyal, and those gossips had actually been used to become one of the confidence of their own words.
Moreover, in the occasional letter from outside the city, Sun Zhong also made some progress on his side, which could be regarded as a blow to his troubled heart.
Then on July 26, it was another autumn rain, and the autumn mood was a little stronger.
It was noon after the rain passed, and he and Shi Yiguan, Lao Ji and others walked up the city wall, Shi Yiguan was looking at the ruins of a large number of houses demolished in the city, and his face was slightly gloomy: "There are a lot less people who can be demolished nearby, and they have to be transported from a distance...... Also, there is not much food. News came from Jia Fu's side today, if he didn't recruit An, or found a way to break through, he would kill the whole family of these grain merchants, and he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to survive. ”
Lao Ji hesitated for a long time, then he also came closer, "Big brother, Zhao Hong's side...... Someone is eating people. ”
Zhang Mancheng's hand holding the city wall trembled slightly, and he went up silently, looking at the tired faces of the soldiers guarding the city wall, tired and heavy, and he also comforted a few times.
Soon after, the three of them stood at the head of the city, Zhang Mancheng felt the knife marks on the city wall and looked at the camp in the distance, and scolded secretly, "It's really fucking ...... can hold up."
As soon as the words fell, someone seemed to be riding out on the other side, Shi Yiguan raised his eyebrows, "Alone? ”
Lao Ji's spirit was shocked, "Negotiate peace? ”
Zhang Mancheng didn't respond, looking at the silhouette of the figure, after a while, his pupils suddenly dilated, and he saw that the man was standing alone under the city, pointing at himself from afar, and shouted: "Come down, go head!" ”
Zhang Mancheng slapped the battlements, and under the persuasion of Shi Yiguan and Lao Ji, he shouted undoubtedly: "Good! ”
The eyes flickered, and the knot in his heart suddenly dissipated.
The gentlemen are here......
Heh, I'm afraid this guy is worse off than me, right?
